So here is my second finished intarsia. Owyhee picture jasper framed with more picture jasper jasper, beige and then blue/green, and basenite. Once again the rectangular shape was a challenge to cab.

And my DH set this one up as a pendant.

Thank you everyone!

I am sooo disappointed that most of the Tucson show has been postponed until April. I have a stack of slabs that I think are worthy of framing, but I need some "boring" stones to turn into frames!

The use of color in the framing is perfect.

Aggrieved conceit, repressed envy—perhaps the conceit and envy of your fathers—erupt from you as a flame and as the frenzy of revenge.” —Friedrich Nietzsche

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
